Wow, we haven’t posted since October, so sorry for the long
absence! Well we’re back and it’s Wedding Wednesday. This this week we’re all
colorful!

Here at Steins we believe that love does not know gender, love
simply is and we are proud to support the LGBTQ community. This week’s wedding
was a beautiful expression of love between two women who are proud and excited
to share their lives together as a married couple. The colors of the rainbow
reflect the diversity of the LGBTQ community and our beautiful couple chose to
use rainbow roses throughout their big day in celebration of their love.

Everything for this wedding was designed in beautiful rainbow
roses. Rainbow roses are created by cross cutting the stems of a white rose and
placing each section into a different colored dye solution. The rose drinks the
dye and transforms into the amazing colors that make us this unique bloom.

Rainbow Rose Wedding Bouquet

This cascading bouquet was designed with more than three dozen
rainbow roses with touches of eucalyptus and peacock feathers.

The rainbow theme was carried throughout the day with a pair of
matching altar containers for the ceremony and centerpieces for the reception.

Congratulations to the happy couple!

Now that it’s September and school is back in session, everyone
seems to be thinking autumn, and we’re not complaining. This summer has been so
hot, we’re ready to welcome the cooler weather, changing leaves and pumpkin
spice. So this Wedding Wednesday we have a bouquet that has a hint of autumn
hues, while still being summery bright in these last few weeks of the season.

This wedding bouquet is a gathering of cheerful orange Asiatic
lilies, orange gerbera daisies, yellow button mums, purple statice, red roses,
solidego and touches of light lavender daisies. The warm hues make us long for
fall, but the purple and lavender keep it summery fresh!

For the last week of June, National Rose Month, we wanted to share a bouquet that features roses, so this week’s bridal bouquet is a clutch of beautiful
tightly gathered white roses with pops of plum and purple in the form of button
pom pons and statice. So simple and yet so elegant. The white roses matched the
bride’s gown, while the pops of color accented her bridesmaids’ dresses. This
bouquet is a lovely example of adding color while remaining traditional.

It’s Wedding Wednesday! We hope you enjoyed our prom bouquets
the last four weeks. This week we’re back to true wedding bouquets; though we
wouldn’t be surprised if someone requested one for prom.

This week’s bouquet is flush with opulent blush pink roses. Our
designer gathered them tightly into a perfectly round clutch bouquet. So simple
and so elegant. A silver wrap around the stems finishes the bouquet with
sparkling beauty.

It’s Wedding Wednesday!! As promised, this week we’re sharing
more from the beautiful wedding reception at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine
Arts.

The PAFA is such a unique venue with wonderfully eclectic art
and the couple wanted to translate that into their reception centerpieces. Each
arrangement was designed to be different from the others, while still lending a
cohesive look throughout the venue.

In an adjoining gallery, cocktail tables had their own unique centerpieces
as well, though they were designed in beautiful bold purples and greens. Green
cymbidium orchids, green hydrangea, deep purple stock, lavender lisianthus,
purple mokara and dendrobium orchids, and green hanging amaranthus were
featured in these arrangements.

Throughout all the rooms amazing foliage was incorporated for a
very lush and lavish look. Variegated pittosporum, zebra striped leaves, seeded
eucalyptus, sansevieria, springeri, dusty miller, emerald, ti leaves, blades of
lily grass and giant elephant ear philodendron are among the many varieties
included in the centerpieces.

Finally, curly willow branches were used for texture and drama,
curving over the tops of some arrangements and reaching for the sky in others.

Art was truly prominent throughout this reception, on the walls
and on the tables. It was a true joy to design these unique arrangements for such
a joyous occasion.

It’s Wedding Wednesday!! This week we’re sharing a beautiful and
elegant cake from a wedding at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.

The PAFA is an amazing facility with ever changing exhibits, so
you never know which ones may be at your event, but they are all unique and add
an artistic flair that will have your guests talking long after the reception
is over.

The cake was placed in a room secluded from the main reception
area where desserts were served in a lounge type area. The cake itself was a
simple design; we adorned it with clusters of green cymbidium orchids,
hypericum berries, hanging amaranthus, ivory roses and touches of ivy,
springeri and blades of lily grass.

We’ll bring you more photos from this beautiful wedding next
week!

It’s Wedding Wednesday on Valentine week, so what could be more
appropriate than a bridal bouquet of red roses?We designed this wedding a couple years ago for a Valentine
weekend wedding at the White Clay Creek Country Club in Wilmington, DE. We were
working with Philadelphia radio station 94.1 WYSP (now 94.1 WIP Sportsradio),
who gave away the entire wedding to the winning couple, who were married by radio
personality Danny Bonaduce.

The bridal clutch is designed in beautiful red “Freedom” roses
and accented by crystals. The rest of the bridal party also carried red roses
and the reception was decked in romantic red roses and beautiful pink
stargazers.

The dream wedding winners Justin and Becca were wonderful to
work with and truly had the wedding of their dreams.
